The cost of not following your heart, is spending the rest of your life wishing you had. 

You don’t want to listen to your heart? Fine. Stay at your 9-5 job and take one vacation per year and live a mediocre life. On the other hand if you want to follow your heart and dreams, you will find the luxury to do more things and overall be a much happier person. Bottom line, is listen to your heart and if you don’t you’ll be extremely upset with yourself in your later years in life. 

Bobble Collecting Story “Larry Walker”

by | Mar 6, 2017 | Bobble Collecting Story

So a good buddy on mine who ives in Jacksonville Fl, knows I’m a  huge bobblehead guy. He actually lives a few blocks away from the Jacksonville Suns stadium. A few years back he wanted to take his 3 kids and wife to a game. He looked at the schedule and noticed there was a Larry Walker bobblehead giveaway. He chose that game because he knew his kids would love the bobble. 

So, he took pictures with his family while he was at the game and texted me a few. I wrote back, “I’m glad your having a good time bro”. A few days passed and I go out to my front door and long behold, there’s a package with the return address being “Jacksonville, FL”. I soon opened the box and there was the Larry Walker bobblehead. 

That’s my story, what’s yours?

The most dangerous person is the one who listens, thinks and observes. Bruce Lee

Speak less and listen more. In previous motivational posts, I’ve stated that the loudest one in the room is the biggest joke. Don’t be that person. Think while other’s are speaking and observe their actions. You know who the loser is when they are talking. Listen more. Keep quiet and be ready to speak your mind when it’s your turn. Many, many people will respect you more when you speak and say the right thing as opposed to the annoying loudmouth that is full of garbage. 

Bobble of the Day “SF Giants Parrot”

by | Mar 3, 2017 | Bobble of the Day

Bobble of the Day

Mascot: Parrot 

Team: San Francisco Giants

Year: 2017

Manufacturer: AGP

So the Giants did a “Special Event” for ticket holders on August 27th of 2016. The theme was Margaritaville at the park. I’m not sure how many were handed out as this was a “season ticket holder” event. I did a bobble of the day review of the Parrot that the Spinner handed out 5 years ago or so and granted I’m not the biggest Jimmy Buffet fan, but this one is cool as shit. 

The Giants didn’t have to give a bobble out but they did and they twisted it perfectly into a Margaritaville night themed event. Well done SF Giants.

This quick run of these parrot bobbles are made very well. The box first off, is colored from head to toe with photos of the parrot and hashtags of the Giants everywhere. The bobble itself has a circular base with “Margaritaville” in raised letters on the bottom. The parrot is sitting on a baseball bat as the manufacturer is representing a branch that an actual parrot would sit on. The parrot himself is flooded with colors with bright green wings, a palm tree orange shirt and shiny colored glasses. Very unique idea AGP. 

 

Sniper Rating: The letters on the base and the base color itself represent the Giants colors which makes sense. Even if your not a SF Gaints fan, this is a must have in your collection. It stands out and it’s a fucking parrot! Get this one Snipers as there’s not to many around for long. Margaritaville Parrot scores a deserving 8.5 rating.
